Lyrics and Translation of the Irish Gaelic

Síuíl á Rúin

I would I were on yonder hill.

It's there I'd sit and cry my fill,

And every tear would turn a mill

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

Chorus: Síuíl, síuíl, síuíl á Rúin

Síuíl go sochair agus síuíl go cíuín

Síuíl go doras agus ealaigh liom

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,

I'll sell my only spinning wheel

To buy my love a sword of steel.

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red

And it's round the world I'll beg for bread

Until my parents would wish me dead

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain

I wish I had my heart again

And vainly think I'd not complain

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

And now my love has gone to France

To try his fortune to advance.

If he e'er comes home 'tis but a chance

*Is go dté tú mo mhúirnin slán.

 

Translation:

Chorus: Go, go, go love

Go smoothly and quietly

Go to the door and slip away (escape) with me

*And may you go safe my darling/beloved.

Lift The Wings

How can the small flowers grow

If a wild wind blows

And the cold snow is all around?

And where can the frail birds fly

If their homes on high

Are all torn down to the ground?

 

Chorus: Lift the wings that carry me away from here and

Fill the sail that breaks the line to home,

But when I'm miles and miles apart from you

I'll be with you when I think of you

*A Stóirín a Ghrá.

 

How can a tree stand tall

If a rain won't fall

To wash its branches down

And how can the heart survive?

Can it stay alive

If its love's denied for long?

 

Chorus: Lift the wings that carry me away from here and

Fill the sail that breaks the line to home

But when I'm miles and miles apart from you

I'm beside you when I think of you - a Stóirín

And I'm with you when I dream of you - a Stóirín

And a song will bring me near to you -

*A Stóirín a Ghrá.

 

 

Translation:

*A Stóirín a Ghrá - Ah Darling ah Love.
